Sunderland are the latest club to show interest in Clermont Foot midfielder Habib Keita.
The 23-year-old Malian has emerged as a sought-after talent after a strong campaign in Ligue 2, and Ontheminute.com understands that the Black Cats are now believed to be monitoring his situation closely.
Keita made 30 appearances last season, contributing a goal and four assists while showcasing his versatility across midfield roles.
His technical ability and work rate have made him a standout for Clermont.
French outlet L’Equipe previously revealed that QPR and Stoke City are also keen on Keita, while Premier League side Crystal Palace have reportedly scouted him as a long-term midfield option.
With growing interest across the English leagues, Keita’s departure from Clermont in the 2025 summer transfer window appears increasingly likely.
